Benefits of membership

Influence

The CBI works tirelessly on behalf of our members, building on our established relationships with government to ensure the voice of business is heard where and when it matters, from setting the skills agenda, to exports, infrastructure, innovation, tax, regulation and beyond.

With business leaders steering our agenda, and a diverse, vibrant membership giving their views on the ground, senior policymakers and government ministers actively seek our input when legislative or policy decisions are about to be made.

We are driven by the issues that matter to your business - and if there's something holding you back, the CBI is here to help.

Whether you're managing the impact of legislative change or planning your next business move, knowledge is power.

With the largest policy team outside Whitehall, powered by the collective know-how of our members, we have a wealth of cross-sector expertise to help members grow - and we can offer practical support and advice on policy changes and the issues that impact on business success.

Our market leading economic surveys, forecasts and analysis help you plan ahead.

Reports, briefings, email and web updates, webinars and podcasts give you valuable intelligence on the latest policy and economic developments, best practice and business trends.
